Update of bug #63765 (project findutils): Status: None => Working as Intended Assigned to: None => berny Release: None => 4.8.0 Fixed Release: 4.8.0 => 4.9.0
_______________________________________________________ Follow-up Comment #1: Those have been unlucky cases, indeed. Incidentally, I used a bare 'find -delete' the other day myself (consciously) instead of the usual 'rm -rf *'. The -delete action is like a sharp knife, and a kitchen chef would never want to switch to a dull knife once she had a sharp one in her hand. Re. adding a warning: this wouldn't help much ... as half a second later the files/directories would be gone as well. But adding such a warning to the manual is a good thing - which we actually did in the last release 4.9; here's the commit: https://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/findutils.git/commit/?id=58747d778e Thus said, I'm sorry for the inconvenience, but at this point I don't see that we should change the behavior. As such, I'm marking this as "working as intended" for now. _______________________________________________________ Reply to this item at: <https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?63765> _______________________________________________ Message sent via Savannah https://savannah.gnu.org/
